March 24, 2008 - Denver, Colorado - Fusionbox, a leading href="http://www.fusionbox.com">Denver interactive agency specializing in search
engine marketing (SEM), user-centric web design, and custom web development, is
proud to announce the launch of SherpaMemorialFoundation.org.

The website promotes the mission of the Lhapka Tseri Sherpa and Dawa Temba Sherpa
Memorial Foundation to provide aid to the Sherpa community and the families of the
Sherpas who lost their lives in a tragic accident on Mount Everest\'s Khumbu Icefall
in April 2006.

On April 3rd, 2008, Alan \"Lanny\" Anderson, a member of the foundation\'s Board of
Directors and Partner at at the Denver law firm of Rothgerber Johnson and Lyons LLP,
will embark on a trek on behalf of the foundation.

"It\'s truly an honor to be a part of this mission and I look forward to meeting the
families and members of the Sherpa community to distribute the funds raised," notes
Anderson.

Anderson\'s trek is the second effort on behalf of the foundation to provide funds.
The bulk of the first distribution, made in December of 2007, was made to build a
teahouse on the trail to Mt. Everest with the goal of providing a stable annual
income for families in the area. Anderson\'s trek will begin in a Nepalese village
called Lukla, then he\'ll walk to the villages to make the distributions, hiking in
elevations ranging from 9,000 at Lukla to 17,800 feet at Base camp.

Fusionbox is one of several sponsors whose generosity is making Anderson\'s trip
possible. "We\'re excited to help bring a web presence to Lanny\'s trek. Our goal was
to create a website to showcase the efforts of everyone involved and provide a
vehicle by which the foundation could communicate with donors, members of the media,
the general public, and with those that benefit from the funds raised. This web
design project is a tremendous opportunity to connect communities a half a world
apart and I\'m glad that Fusionbox could play an important role in providing this
resource," remarks Fusionbox President, Alexander Groth.
